[Farmall] (no subject)

[Mike Sloane]

The problem with the very early Cubs is that, while the muffler is 
pretty much standard, the decals and the grille were somewhat different 
from later models. Later model replacement grilles are available, but 
the '47 had a wire screen that was finer than the later ones up through 
the '50s. If historical purity isn't an issue, you can find the later 
replacements just by doing a Google search. I think Steiner Tractor and 
OEM Tractor Parts probably carry them.

As far as the decals, you would have to see the actual decal to see if 
it matches what was originally on yours. I have seen all kinds of 
variations, including some that were never on a tractor but are a kind 
of "generic" Cub decal.
